- Ambassador Trovere: If I leave without Sibeth, then war is inevitable.
- Lord Harlan: Not if you expose a rogue faction. Prevent a civil war. You'll be hailed as a hero.
- Ambassador Trovere: Or buried as one.
- Baba Voss: You know, the day you and your sister were born, Witchfinders attacked our village. Many died, and we fled. Your first night was spent in a forest, and I stood guard that cold night. And every rush of wind through the trees sounded like the breath of a Witchfinder. I had been a father for less than a day, and I already thought that I had failed you, that I could not protect my children. That fear never goes away. But I have learned to embrace it. It is what makes us a father.
- Kofun: I don't know that I'm supposed to be a father. Not like this.
- Baba Voss: Oh, son. You will find a way, as all fathers do.
- Kofun: How?
- Baba Voss: There is no great secret. You'll be scared... often. That's part of it. Fatherhood is a different kind of battle, one that you wage with your heart. And you, Kofun, you have the strongest heart of any man I've ever met. Now take him. Your battle begins today, son.
